GitLab Projects API

What an attacker could do

Access to the GitLab projects API exposes repository metadata and, with a leaked token, source code, CI/CD variables, and pipeline secrets that enable supply-chain compromise of build artifacts.

How to defend it

Disable public project visibility where not required, scope and rotate personal/CI access tokens, and enforce authentication plus IP allow-listing on the API.
